The authors, clinical psychologists in the UK, help parents with children with intellectual disabilities or autism understand issues that arise when these children hit puberty and begin to deal with sexuality. After general tips about topics like sex abuse, communication, and safety, they answer questions related to the biology of puberty, the resulting changing bodies, behavior, feelings, relationships, and sex and the law, ending with a sex education program.
